Floree Sequoia Bride : National Park Brides Book 2

By  Linda Carroll-Bradd

 Due to the impact of commercial interests on the scenic land that became known as Yosemite, the 38th United States Congress passed legislation creating the Yosemite Grant, which President Abraham Lincoln signed into law on June 30, 1864. It was the first time land was set aside by the U.S. government specifically for preservation and public use. Although initially Yosemite Valley and the Mariposa Grove were ceded to California as a state park, this action set a precedent for the 1872 creation of Yellowstone National Park, the nation’s first national park. Over the years, as more lands were set aside as national parks, these natural wonders captured the imaginations of those who visited and enjoyed their beauty. Join several of your favorite authors as we share romances and adventure set in several of North America’s early national parks.

     Artist Floree Percival goes to stay with the Sampsons, old family friends, in Sequoia National Park. Captain Hank Sampson serves as park manager and agrees to chaperon her. A student in the natural science department of University of Southern California, she’s also the illustrator for her father’s book on the birds of California. But her heart’s desire is to write and illustrate children’s stories.

Caroline's Challenge : (Westward Home and Hearts Mail-Order Bride Book 62)

By Jo-Ann Roberts

There’s always one risk in life worth taking.
     Caroline Stoddard clung to Sister Benedict’s words like a lifeline as the train took her across the country from Boston to Pine Ridge, Colorado. After learning the orphanage was closing and she’d be without a roof over her head and her teaching position, she couldn’t have been more surprised when the Prioress referred her to Millie Crenshaw, owner of the Westward Home and Hearts Matrimonial Agency.
     But life had another surprise in store for Caroline when she stepped off the train in Pine Ridge, Colorado. Instead of the new start she expected with James Murdock, her intended groom, he is nowhere to be found. With only a few coins to her name and no reason to return to Boston, she’s determined to make the best of it in this rugged land.
     As the deputy sheriff in Pine Ridge, Knox Manning is haunted by a robbery gone wrong, making him question his ability to protect the town, and a stranded woman at the train depot with nowhere to go is the last thing he needs. But walking away isn’t in his nature. The badge he wears is both an anchor and a burden, one that caused him to sacrifice the one thing he always wanted—a chance for a home and a family.
     Just as they begin to see each other in ways neither expected, and Knox dares to dream about a future with Caroline, the town of Pine Ridge is threatened by the same outlaws he’d been tracking for two years.
     When Caroline is abducted, Knox realizes the gang had given him something worth fighting for—worth dying for, if necessary.
     But more importantly, worth living for.
